Arby's - 2 Reviews

Samantha, you look wonderful tonight. I didn't tell you earlier but you deserve the compliment. I think that we really deserve a nice night out at this fine Greek restaurant. The prices are reasonable and it's the only place where you can get a hot dog, spaghetti, steak, and a gyro and no one looks at you funny. Those are all high quality foods. Also, one other thing I enjoy about this place is that they have that little bowl of after dinner mints and that tiny spoon so people don't put their grimy hands in the dish. They hand you Andes mints when you get your check, too. Very nice people, those Greeks. Very nice people.

What am I getting tonight? Well, Sam, tonight I will be getting the hummus to start, followed by the main entry of a hamburger, and closing it with a spanakopita, and washing it all down with a mint chocolate shake. What are you getting? Oh, the french onion soup, chicken tacos, tiramisu, and a diet Coke? Sounds multicultural and delicious.

Samantha, this was a wonderful second date and to cap it, I will give you a big surprise. No, I'm not going into my pocket for a wedding ring. Don't worry. I am getting my wallet because I am paying this entire thirty-four dollar check. Dinner is on me tonight; my treat to you. You know what? I've still got half a milkshake left...and there are Andes mints here...maybe I'll just...crush these up here...and put them in here....and now I have a chocolate mint Andes supreme. It's supreme because I took some of your whipped cream from your dessert when you went to the bathroom. This is great although I could get a Shamrock shake, throw some Andes in there and call it a day. You know what, though. This is a special occasion. For you, I will treat this like a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Thank you for coming, Samantha. I had a wonderful night. I hope you did the same. We ate food from around the world, listened to the happy birthday song in Greek three times, and co-created a great milkshake that you can remember me by when we're not together. No, I'm not reaching in my jacket pocket for a ring, Samantha. I am getting my car keys. Man, are you anxious or worried to get married? I can't feel you out.

"Maybe I'll get a Jamocha shake." I said to myself in the pouring rain as we were on our way to Arby's. I don't normally get shakes but I thought for that reason I might get one. One foot in the joint and I saw this...

...and thought it might be good for the site. You know, people like Arby's. Everyone loves to say "Horsey Sauce" and new products are always fun.

As you can see, what I got did not exactly resemble what was shown but I understand not everything can be so fancy. Rather than pulling a "Falling Down" I decided to drink this and not say a word, well, until now I guess. I honestly don't care how this came to me, it was just drastic enough to point out.

I kind of knew what I was in for and it's very easy to explain. Take a vanilla milkshake, crush a handful of starlight mints in it, blend, put more crushed mints on top, drink. That's it. There might have been a pink, mint syrup involved, too, because I can't see how the colors ran so much in such little amount of time. You probably think I'm going to make a "These colors don't run." or "America" reference but not today. Instead I'll come through and let you know what a drink was like. Novel idea for a website that claims to review drinks, right?

It was good. I certainly didn't need as much as I received and sure, I could have just stopped drinking but the chunks of candy were at the bottom and, much like a drug addict or an eight years old boy on Halloween, I just couldn't stop. Poor kids. They just love candy so much. I bet both of those parties would enjoy this milkshake. It would probably help out the meth head's bad breath due to lack of teeth and dental coverage.
